Bake until the casserole is bubbly and the cheese has turned golden brown, about 25 minutes. Let the casserole rest for 10 minutes at room temperature before serving. Leftovers can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 1 week. Reheat in a 350°F oven until heated through, or reheat individual servings in the microwave. Love the recipe?
